What (Some) Media Folk Make

The Washington Post collected the salaries of 100 Washingtonians to commemorate Labor Day. On the list are a variety of professions, from garbage collector to panhandler to Abraham Lincoln impersonator, but what we really want to know: How much do DC’s media folk make?

Scott Simon, whose voice is familiar to NPR listeners everywhere, takes home just over $300k.

Don Graham, president and CEO of The Washington Post Company, earns $811,960, and an intern at the Post, James Hohmann, earns $44,167.50.
